I need to zip my soldat folder so i can email it to myself...but do you really have to go in and highlight every file of every folder to do so?

Right click on your desktop.
Scroll to New
Click on Compressed (zipped) Folder.
After that, just drag your entire Soldat folder right into the zipped file.
Or if you don't want to drag your entire Soldat folder inside, just drag the soldatinstaller program that you have to download in the first place in order to install Soldat onto your computer.

You don't have to highlight every file.  You can just zip a folder that contains all of your files by right clicking on the folder, moving over "Send To," and selecting "Compressed (zipped) folder."

That's slightly easier than moving all of your files to a new folder, by the way.

Is waiting 44 minutes 58 seconds worth it? ...

You are the one that wants to send it, why do you want to send it?

That's what I do. Actually, I RUN it off my flash drive, but the menu is kind of laggy. Gameplay is still the same though

If you're installing Soldat on new computers and just want all of your stuff, this is what you should do:

- Install Soldat normally on the new computer
- Move the Soldat folder to Soldat.bak
- THEN copy the folder from the "old" computer to where the new one was.

This ensures that registry changes and other things done during installation are still done.  Some problems can show up if you just copy the folder (though it would probably work)
